Hi guys,
I am trying to add a few pins to the black connector B on the bcm but not sure which pins to source exactly. I can see from the discussions there several options if anyone can help point me in the right direction that will be really helpful. I’d rather order pins and crimp my wires on.
Firstly I am trying to retro fit rear parking sensors. I have everything fitted and parking module. I now just need to wire to ignition live and earth.
Then I have For parking sensors I need to connect to:
Orange to pin 19
Brown to pin 18
On the black connector. I have noticed that pin 19 is already occupied. So do I splice into the one already connected ? I am unsure at this stage. Pin 18 looks vacant but i am not sure which pin connector I need to use. It’s on of the smaller pins in the middle. I have high lighted it in the image.
Secondly I have carried out the tailgate conversion. I have vcds system so managed to following the guide in this forum and code the van. However I wa having issues getting the handle to unlock the tailgate. The behaviour also seems to be that when the tailgate is open Ie the latch is open. When I press the central locking button to unlock the solenoid moves the actuator. Same behaviour when the latch is in the first position Ie door slightly opened. But when I fully close the tailgate it won’t unlock or activate the actuator. This however does seem right to me as this is when I should be using the tailgate handle button to unlock. Otherwise the tailgate would pop open every time I unlock the van.
For the bcm side I found this information on the forum :
For tailgate handle I need to connect to:
pin 23 ( earth the pin to open)
For tailgate lock I need to connect to:
Pin 10
Neither pins are connected to my bsm. So I’ve no idea how it’s sending the unlock voltage to latch in the tailgate. Unless I am using the pin that the barn doors used?
It was a while ago since I ran the loom to the bcm and carried out the work so I just wanted to see if anyone could confirm this is correct as unfortunately when I got access to the lock and handle inside the van. It seems I haven’t connected the external switch up . So I may have to try and do this and cause 2 wires all the way back to bcm if possible.
Does anyone know the connector type (blue) 2 wire plug that goes into the back of the tailgate handle for t6 ?
Any help would be appreciated from anyone who knows this job or has carried it out. Or has any suggestions for me at all.
Thank you
